U.S.-China Cooperative Research: Numerical and Analytical Studies in Nonlinear Waves

这是一个为期一年的合作研究项目，与加州大学戴维斯分校的Blake Temple博士和华盛顿大学的Randall Leveque博士合作，与中科院系统科学研究所的王京华教授和中山大学的林龙伟教授合作，使用数值和解析方法研究非线性波。本课题研究的是应用数学的一个重要领域。这个美国组织以其在守恒法的双曲线系统方面的工作而闻名。中国团队在波相互作用和大时间步长方法领域取得了重大进展。这两个领域都是理解非线性波所必需的，它们可以共同推动这一应用数学领域的发展。

This is a one.year collaborative research project with Dr. Blake Temple, University of California at Davis and Dr. Randall Leveque, University of Washington working with Professor Wang Jinghua, Institute of Systems Science, Academia Sinica and Professor Lin Longwei, Zhongshan University, to study nonlinear waves using numerical and analytical methods. This project studies an important field of applied mathematics. The U.S. group is known for its work on the hyperbolic systems of conservation laws. The Chinese team has made significant progress in the area of wave interactions and large time step methods. Both areas are needed for understanding nonlinear waves, and jointly they can advance this field of applied mathematics.
